    Monster Hunter: World

    I've been trucking along until Tigrex, fucker wiped me a bunch of times. I'm fairly sure he'd be a lot easier with Lance but had a lot of trouble landing clean hits with HH especially when he's enraged. Eventually still killed him though and figured now is a good time to upgrade my armor cause I...

    Have to clear it once before you can do that, at least on PS4 not sure if it works on PC haven't tested yet. Game is trying to tell me to go back to Lance, first lvl 4 deco I dropped is Offensive Guard+Crit Eye which is really fucking good.

    Yeah you have to turn it off in the DLC options. I removed them earlier today cause I figured it'd be possible they'd just download automatically and it wasn't worth it, can turn the download on while the game is playing.

    Download started for the expansion btw, 40gb + the installation process but should be up in time.

    That's the last monster in the base story so once you're done you should be ready for the expansion(more or less there's a bunch of stuff to unlock but you can unlock them later.

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    To be fair the rustle still stands, if Amazon sends you an obviously automated message about answering questions on the product, and you don't know the answer, then don't fucking answer. This is 100% older people who don't get it's automated shit and they don't give a shit if you answer or not...

    If you give them a bit of fire damage they might kill stuff with ignite, which should give you credit if it still works that way. Similar if you can get them to do some poison or bleed, although that's harder since those aren't natural ailments like ignite. If you use Brutality on them you're...

    Monster Hunter: World

    The story has a few "siege" encounters yeah, the expansion also has them. They're nice to do once but they're fairly horrible to farm which made Zorah one of the worst monsters in the end. There's also the larger multiplayer encounters in endgame that have a bunch of phases and mechanics, in the...

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    That looks pretty pointless but also very cool and liquid cooling consoles means you don't get the faulty airplane noise shit going on whenever you play a bigger game. Wouldn't buy an expensive system like this so close to the release of the next gen though.

    I mean you can also edit your gold using the save editor so you can fix that if needed, I posted a link to it a couple pages back in the spoiler that has a bunch of mods and what not. For meta stuff, this is the reddit thread that has all the meta sets: You then cross compare with the weapon...

    Monster Hunter: World

    Oh right I've only been looking at assignement monsters but there's probably a bunch more unlocked at that point. I guess I'll look into it once I'm playing, shouldn't be much of a problem to get armor anyway, just feel Nargacuga is probably a good point to switch since it's a fair few quests in...

    Monster Hunter: World

    I did my preparations but it wasn't all that much, mostly looking up weapon progression for Lance and Hunting Horn and seeing what are meta weapons and which ones upgrade from LR/HR weapons and crafting these in advance. It was a bunch of Bone weapons though, some Bazel shit that I already had...

    When the game releases they'll have a bundle with both the expansion+base game for a full game price(60euros or whatever it is in canadian dollars, the usual). They can't release that in advance for whatever reason though but you can get the preorder bonus(which is just an armor skin nothing too...

    Monster Hunter: World

    There's items but you use them as you need them rather than on cooldown, and even then you'll generally only have a few items you'll want to use on a given hunt(healing potions obviously which come in various sizes, attack buffs that you pop before engaging the monsters, maybe some item to clear...

    Path of Exile

    I mean it removes every delve mods but you still have the core mods, so it's still a bunch of garbage and bound adds the reduced reserved mana also. Also if you want +3, it can still roll +1 and +2 minion even if it rolls the right affix. Still it shouldn't be too hard, generally it's just...

    Oh from yesterday, that happened 10mins after he ripped another character(this one entirely his fault, he facetanked the ice bitch tornadoes shit while standing under her hoping his spellblock would take care of it), so probably why he got angry. Also this is a bullshit rip, offscreen minions...

    They said the bundle is only coming after the release but yeah. No preloading anyway so you don't really lose much just waiting. Longsword is really good against him if you have a good weapon(which defender is) and weakness exploit+enough affinity. Basically once he gets knocked down, you can...

    This is a pre MHW thing(MH4 and so on), doesn't work in MHW. You can use dragon element to keep it shorter but that's all you can do.

    I don't know for sure about normal but pretty sure all versions work the same way, when Kushala puts up the wind shield shit that knocks you back in melee range, it also deflects all ammo unless you hit the head. That makes it quite annoying, and then when he's flying around he moves a bunch...

    What are your Top 10 games on Steam by Playtime?

    My list has changed a little bit since the post was first made I guess. Over 100hours: Still have to go back to Divinity 2 at some point, and Monster Hunter World's about to go up 100hours in the next few weeks. Path of Exile and FFXIV not on Steam but probably are both higher than the dota2...

    Monster Hunter: World

    Was talked about on the last page but it doesn't really take very long to catch up since it's PC gaming, you can just edit everything. Mostly you have to redo the story or find a save with the story cleared, and then spend an hour editing shit back and forth so you're at the same point. The main...

    On GS learning, it's very easy until you fight harder shit like arch tempered/some tempered. Just put on rocksteady mantle and dismantle the monster, if it's not something hitting hard enough you'll just fucking shit on it before the mantle is over, just gets harder after that, but even then you...

    Path of Exile

    Well it's isn't really gimping them as much as not going full left everytime. If there's no reward/the reward is armor/weapons, shit's useless and just add unnecessary mods on the metamorphs. As long as you grab all the good stuff, the unique and still fill the bar, that's good enough I think...

    Path of Exile

    I honestly had little issues with metamorphs, just kill them before they do anything. I randomly died a lot more from legion mobs, syndicate mobs and map bosses(this fucker in primordial blocks especially has the weirdest fucking attacks but somehow has a shit ton of life). I mostly select...

    Path of Exile

    I don't think you can react to the sound queue that much, key for the fight in general is just to keep moving and only stop after he's done a beam, this way you're already moving when he does the die beam. If you're not already moving chances are he'll clip you with the first one and then chain...

    If you rush without farming with the defender gear it should be pretty quick yeah, there's defender weapons too. Then once you're at endgame you just unlock your mantles and you can edit the vendor to sell materials and decorations so you can get your stuff fixed quickly. I think only issue is...

    Path of Exile

    I mean one way to look at it is even if it you had the atlas set properly, it would have dropped shit. Not sure how much are yellow maps worth atm but I'd assume under 1c, and early red are probably not worth a lot more with how strong the T14+ sustain in with the new atlas. So realistically...

    Monster Hunter: World

    I don't think I've seen anyone say you can transfer saves. You can however either use a generic save that has the story complete and then edit your character in(you can edit appearance/name, I think only gender is a bit shitty so you'd need the right one), or you can rush the story and edit the...

    Path of Exile

    Do you have medium tier maps available on your atlas? They do not downgrade maps in the new system, if you only have regions with 4 watchstones, you basically can only drop 1-5(depends on inner/outter, only T1 if you have 32watchstones) and 14-16 maps, so if it rolls says T12, then it doesn't...

    Tower of Time is free on GOG for the next couple of days or whenever it ends, site being slow as shit atm: https://www.gog.com/game/tower_of_time Heard decent things about the game so had it on my wishlist for a while but no real motivation to buy it, so that saves me the trouble.

    Yeah they crash everyone as far as I know, although it's maybe not all of them cause once I didn't crash(I think it was the vaal boss). It's been on the known list since the start but since they're on holidays shit isn't getting fixed too quick. For me though they only crashed when I broke them...

    Path of Exile

    Takes more work but there's more rewards, you get a bunch of shit from awakening levels and you get 50% more map upgrade from reclearing the atlas a 2nd time with awakening levels so I think it's fair. That said I'm pretty sure they also increased the base map droprate and I don't know if...
  37. Pyros

    Path of Exile

    Yeah I don't necessarily disagree either, I think map bosses should be easy and they can keep the beefy shaper/elder/uber elder/sirius etc for more dedicated builds, this way you can make good mapping builds, good bossing builds and a few builds that can do both well. As it is, you can only make...

    Path of Exile

    The rebalance definitely made a bunch of builds not good, it was kinda expected when they boosted boss hp. The 33% is something else and it was assumed it was also 33% but it feels lower, more like 20% or so. The 33% was the chance to find a conqueror again when running the same map, but only...

    I haven't really needed a target lock in this, monsters rarely move quickly enough to warant it, and when they do a simple press to swing the camera around will do the job. Granted I play Dark Souls and such without locking too much either, let you dodge more accurately but can take some time to...

    Cast in place maybe? Have to click a valid place too, which sounds easier than it is when in the heat of the fight and the walls of the maze being "no movement skill" zones. I've done it once and died twice. After that honestly I stopped doing the waiting for flying boi to come over and started...
